Okay.. we got the New event form... a delete button and the Save button user uses em...

I thought i saw somewhere a way to prevent user from X out, closing form

what it does for me is create a ghost record possibly with no Summary Field data I show on Calendar

Hi Rod,

You can turn any FileMaker popup window into a modal by simply pausing a script when you get there (make sure Allow User Abort is turned off), then set the button you want users to click to Resume the current script (default is Pause). Maybe you'd provide two buttons: "ok" to commit records and "cancel" to revert. But to fully implement this on the Event Details window in Pro Calendar, there are some other things you'd need to accommodate. I can think of three off the top of my head:

1) the "repeat" button
2) the "delete" button
3) multiple Event Details popup windows for overlapping events

Those first two should be pretty easy to deal with, but I can see there being some pretty complicated logic if you're going to have multiple Event Details windows open at the same time and you want them all to be modal.

FWIW, it's a lot easier to make modal windows in FileMaker 12.

thanks... this question got another...


Other situation.. what causes the seed code to spin with the hour glass.. at STARTUP


I press esc to get out...
Seem run time versions

Seedcode app is in its own folder off of my main folder developing..
main/ supportFiles\Seedcode.fp7

When, I run compile on my application. adding the sourceseed source code to the pathlist
When the compile is done... the seedcode runtime.fp7 file is added to my runtime folder

Then I must make the folder /supportFiles in runtime

and drag the seedcode compiled.fp7 file inside my /supportFile folder


I run my runtime app works normal..

Now to get your app running... in my Admin, I have a button
I am calling the same file script UponOpening script, normal
and suggested

Love this app

Any hints?

I'm having a hard time following this, but I think you want to make the runtime when the files are in the same relative location to each other as when you distribute them. That is, don't change the files' relative location after you make the runtime.
